Living in Black and White...

... and not to forget: grey. The absence of colours in our apartment went slightly slow and there are still some colourful spots, but hey, homogeneous could be quite boring. At the moment I`m really content with the style, but maybe tomorrow I`m back into pink or pastel.

Simply Striped

I´m really into simple clothes these days. Found this nice white-blue-striped shirt at our local Weekday store. I like the slightly oversized fit and the fact that the material is 100% cotton.

November Faves

What do you need for a perfect November evening? Exactly: a good book and a cosy sweater. Luckily I found both, the sweater in my favourite colour for this season, grey. and the book from my favourite author, Paul Auster. Definitely worth to read it. The other things show my second fave: pale pink and copper. Really love this combination at the moment.

Last´s of Summer

I know I didn`t post much this summer, so I made a short special with the pictures which didn`t make it on this blog. Here are my summer-collages.

Still Burn for You, my Dungarees

It´s getting slightly cold, but sometimes the sun comes out and I can wear my new leo-slip-ons. They go perfectly together with some lace and my beloved dungarees.

Pattern Love

Still in love with my Marni trousers from H&M. Perfect for summer.

Shirt: COS; trousers: Marni for H&M; Shoes: Vagabond

Stars and Gladiators

This was my birthday-party-outfit. I´m glad, that gladiator sandals are back, because they have this certain hippie style, which gives every outfit this kind of easy-peasy feeling.
I`ve picked the Étoile Isabel Marant jeans in sale with another one and they are perfectly in line with the sandals.

blouse: Zara; jeans: Étoile Isabel Marant; gladiators: H&M

Donkeys and Silver

It`s really hot here and I finally got the occasion to wear my new Marni top. The donkey print was part of a cooperation between Marni and the Dutch artist Rop van Mierlo. There were a few more themes, like a tiger, an ostrich and a parrot. Really super-cute. I really love the blurred lines of the prints.

Top: Rop van Mierlo for Marni; Shorts: H&M Fashion against Aids (old one); Shoes: Vagabond; Sunnies: Cheap Monday

Bag: Zalando Collection; Watch: Accessorize

Nailpearls: Essence

Some Lace Today

This top is almost a Hippie one, (not that I don`t love this) but combined with a pair of distressed boyfriend jeans (by the way: these ones from weekday have the perfect fit, I guess), this effect is toned down a little bit.

Ikat!

I´m not so into patterns, but Ikat has changed this. Reminding of hippies and festivals, I´m really in love.

Some Kind of Nail-Art

As I might have said before, I`m not the handiest person, so lacquering my nails is not so easy. But I´m a big fan of nailart at the moment and so I tried to do some at home. Maybe it`s not that fancy, but it´s a start.
I used some nailpolish from Astor for the first time. The small bottle looks not so stylish like Essie or Chanel or any of those "blogger nailpolishes", but it`s a nice coral red with an easy to handle brush. (That`s very important for me, hihi.) For topcoat I used cracking coat in white from essence and some confetti-looking-like one also from essence.

Just Stripes

This blouse put me through some outfit-emergencies. Just wear it with whatever you like and you feel dressed for every occasion. In this combination I was wearing it some weeks ago at the stag party of my little sister.

And Now: The Short Ones

It´s hot in Germany, but in the moment you can speak it out, the summer weather is over again and it starts raining. Here are some pics of better days. (Boohoo)

dungarees: monki; espadrilles: espadrij l`original

New In: Espadrilles

Quite obsessed with espadrilles at the moment. There´s nothing more comfortable to wear, if it`s warm outside. My mother always bought the original ones while our vacation in France. So, I decided to order some...and the quality is really good. But there are also some other brands that shouldn´t be ignored.

Blue Eyes

If you get that 80ies-feeling while looking at the picture, I have to admit: Me, too. But I think, you should give it a try, blue mascara is not as bad as its reputation. After all it`s just a funny beauty gag for summer.

New In

This stuff was in some of the boxes from last week. You might have seen the shoes and bag in action at the wedding-shots.

Glittering Nails

I don`t like too much glitter on my clothes or beauty products, but sometimes ...

Dungarees - Part III

I decided to live in my Topshop dungarees until it`s warm enough to wear my short version. They are so comfy and they suit to most occasions. Hach, it`s love.

Isabel Marant pour H&M

Woohoo, I´m so exiceted, H&M has managed to get Isabel Marant for their upcoming autumn designer collection. One of my favourite designers. Hach, on November 14th, I will be there H&M, definetely.
